Hydrogen Distributed Power Generation System

Technology Overview

Hydrogen Distributed Power Generation System.
Hydrogen Distributed Power Generation System.

The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) power generation system utilizes patented technologies such as thermal components, hot box modules, and system control to achieve a power generation efficiency of over 55%. The feedstock for SOFC systems is diverse and includes natural gas, biogas, industrial by-product hydrogen, and other sources. The ongoing technological development is focusing on multi-source power generation technology, modularization, and large-scale industrial applications, with the ultimate goal of reducing system prices and power generation costs.

Applications & Benefits

Fuel cells offer several advantages, such as high efficiency, low pollution, and low noise, making them a top choice for distributed power generation. The first domestic 25 kW SOFC system designed for power generation aims to assist domestic industries in utilizing by-product hydrogen for power generation. In terms of application, distributed power generation helps industries reduce carbon emissions and establish self-generated, stable, low-carbon power, which aligns with the international goal of achieving net zero emissions in the long term.
